The Official Canadian Thread

A Canadian thread and i forgot to post! Im such a hoser! :D

I couldnt imagine living anywhere else...i really love my country.
I live in North Bay (a little north of TO) its not a bad little town....if you ever come through and see alot of buildings that look alike, dont worry...thats normal...its just Tim Hortons on every street corner.
I swear they could put a Tim Hortons on the moon and it will always be packed. They must put a drug in the coffee...cause man i can never get enough of that stuff!
 
Well, as long as this is being brought back to the surface, I might as well shamelessly tell all the Ottawa folks I'll be rocking out at Zaphod's on Thanksgiving Sunday... And Cafe Dekcuf on Oct 23rd :)

B'Aces High, I should be up your way in the next couple months playing Wylders or whatever that place is called. I'm sure I'll make good use of the Tim Hortons... I've driven through North Bay before but never actually stopped in there I don't think.
 
How I know I'm Canadian:

I apoligize a lot.
I say "excuse me", "please", and "thank-you".
I spell it "Cheque".
I saw the very game where Gretzky got signed to the WHA Oilers! ('Nuther Edmonton boy here!)
I know that Yorkville amps are really Traynors.
I have ice-fished, eaten (Hawkins) Cheezies at a bonspiel, and walked 2 miles through the snow uphill both ways.
I'm celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend.

Cheers, eh?
Laurence
 
Well...I, too, am Canadian. Im in Toronto...well Thornhill just north of steeles. Anyway, I go to University of Toronto so there. Anyway, Canada rocks...well Toronto at least, I've been out east and west and they are both nice as well. I would not want to live in the US, not because I dont like it, but because I like it more here. Free health care, good (affordable for anybody if you ask) education, and decent people, plus like half the homeless rate or something (dont quote me on that, its qualitative). Ok, bye.
 
Hey guys, I'm not Canadian but I just got home from watching your Rugby team go down (valiantly) to the Welsh at Telstra Dome in Melbourne, Australia. Despite the vocal support from my wife, you guys just weren't strong enough to hold the Welsh unfortunately. I thought you played pretty solidly though.<BR><BR> :)
